Chapter 334 Mr. Alston Has a Soft Side

Amelie stared at the woman blocking her way. The woman was slender and had delicate features, but her pale face looked sickly. Amelie recognized her as the girl who had tried to talk to Toby at the party hosted by Alfred. If Amelie guessed correctly, this was the girl that Leo said Toby had always liked and never gave up on.

"Can I help you?" Amelie asked calmly. The girl was visibly nervous, making her seem fragile and vulnerable.

"Yeah," Amelie responded nonchalantly.

"I-I followed you and found out that you are Foxy. Miss Dillon, you're Mr. Alston's ex-wife, so this was a form of warning to Toby because Mr. Alston doesn't want you and Toby to be together," the girl added, showing that she knew quite a lot.

"Y-Yes, it was me," the girl said, coughing again because of her nervousness. She was so weak it was downright frustrating to watch.
